Problems with Polish letters Opcje

[doodlebug]

Hello All!
Apologies for my lack of Polish and apologies if this has gone in the wrong forum.
I'm creating a website where you enter your details in text boxes on an .html page, which you then review on a .php page.
Everything has been changed to utf-8.

The problem is when you enter Polish characters in the text box, on the next page when you review the information and say whether it's good or not, the Polish characters show up as "Auml�Auml�Auml�Aring�"

Any idea what the problem could be?

Many thanks in advance

Thanks for the suggestion Mandragorek - but no luck (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)



dariuszp - thanks for the suggestion.

The meta tags are all utf 8, charsets are all UTF 8 on all pages -php and html
database: MySQL charset: UTF-8 Unicode (utf8)
MySQL connection collation: utf-8_unicode_ci

I tried preg_replace and used htmlspecialchars but it still didn't work.

I tried changing the charset to iso-8859-2 and that just messed up the whole page

The code now looks like:

[PHP] pobierz, plaintext 
$string1 = isset($_POST['firstname']) ? htmlentities($_POST['firstname']) : false;
 
if(empty($string1))
{
 
echo("<h2>Imię:<font color=red>Prozsę wypełnić</font></h2>\n");
$showbutton=1;
}
else
{
$firstname = preg_replace ("[^0-9a-zA-Z?ąćęłńóśżźĄĆĘŁŃÓŚŻŹ ]", "", $string1);
$firstname = htmlspecialchars($firstname, ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8');
echo("<h2><span class=profile>Imię:</span> <font color=#04B404>" . $firstname . 
 
"</font></h2>\n");
echo("<input type=hidden name=firstname value=" . $firstname . ">");
[PHP] pobierz, plaintext 

This now produces a blank field rather than symbols - any ideas what's going on?
